Another recent score – I do love my 1970′s BHG books. If I could travel through time, I would absolutely crochet a little granny dress like this for my four-year-old self.

Love this little bear made from one of those patterned 1970′s-era bath towels. Although perhaps the placement of graphics on the chest is just a little creepy….

And these just make me smile every time I look at them. Those giant google eyes are freakin’ awesome. You can just imagine these guys sitting around telling each other bad jokes.

Cute quilted checker board. I love the idea of handmade game sets. You could certainly make your own game pieces from poly clay, or those pre-machined wood shapes at the craft store.

And I love this felt kitty. The layered, machine-stitched applique is really cool here. Plus, gotta love this photo-styling.
. . . I swear to you, there is a podcast in our near future! It’s nearly done.

oh, the log animals on the wheeled carts make me laugh! they remind me of those poor sweet dogs you sometimes see with missing legs riding on skateboards.

Actually, I didn’t even notice the bear boobs until you pointed it out. I love the fabric checkerboard. Some very cute stuff and it can translate to today’s crafting — excellent!

You made me laugh out loud with your bear comment. :-D
The cat plushie’s design is actually very cool! And the board game is just too neat.
I also checked out one of our local library for some craft books and I found a really neat one about crochet animals (Amigurumi, anyone? ;-) ). I posted it on my blog if you wish to take a look at it.

It’s all hilarious! Wheels on the log animals? Would a child need to lift weights in order to pull these around?
I made a checkerboard quilt and painted some wooden chips for pieces (updated Cracker Barrel style).

The log animals have me singing this song from Ren & Stimpy:
What rolls down stairs alone or in pairs
Rolls over your neighbor’s dog?
What’s great for a snack and fits on your back?
It’s Log, Log, Log!
It’s Log, Log, it’s big, it’s heavy, it’s wood.
It’s Log, Log, it’s better than bad, it’s good!
Everyone wants a log! You’re gonna love it, Log!
Come on and get your log! Everyone needs a Log!
